If anyone has Skype credit and needs help with Flash or animation, I'm testing out a new thing where I accept incoming Skype calls to answer quick questions about Flash, ToonBoom, FX or 2D animation in general. In order to keep the calls short and solve problems quickly, I've set the rate at $1 per min but I don't start the meter ticking until you agree. I'd be interested to hear any opinions on that rate too. I think most Q&A type issues can be solved in under 5 min and from my point of view, a slightly higher per-minute rate ensures that callers want their question answered and end the call quickly, which will allow me to move on to other callers - should this indeed prove popular Tongue

You'll need Skype credit to call, so if you're willing to spend a bit of it on me, I'd appreciate a quick, $1 test call for starters so that I can see what notifications I get from Skype and Paypal. If successful, I'll keep it on all the time and advertise it on my blog and site front page, with a reduced rate for forum members Grin

*update - I'm announcing this service on my blog so I've changed the rate to an introductory price of $1 per min. Whoever chooses to help me test this, I'll also refund your $1 so I can get an idea of the entire process.



Here's the info and the Call button. Depending on when you call, I may be here or I may be asleep.

You know, you're famous enough to charge at least $5. Wink

This is a really cool idea, but won't it cut into your leisure and work time? Or are you one of those smart peoplonians that can do that multitaskibaring thingy?

P.S. Please don't charge me for this question!

P.P.S If you charge me? Can I pay in Spider pictures?  Grin
